  1. Lightning is not selling well at my local dealer

    Folsom Lake Ford near Sacramento has 42 2023 Lighnings for weeks, all on parking lot and none of them were sold for a while. I checked several times. In November it listed 43 Lightnings but most of them are one the way but they were all on parking lot since December and seems at most they sold...

  3. Transfer from my son to myself, do I need to pay tax in CA?

    My son is in college and he could buy an EV with $7500 off next year thanks to new tax rebate policy that he does not need to owe $7500 tax to claim it. Now my question is, if he is going to buy a Lightning and transfer it to me, do I need to pay tax (again)?

    Leave me a message. Cash only, charger is still in sealed box. I will be in bayarea Monday, or I would be in bayarea after July 4th. Sacramento area pickup/meet is even better.
  6. FCSP to Tesla Adaptor (pics from Reddit)

    Original post: According to Reddit OP CharityAny5289: 1) Remove the bottom plastic bit from a J1772 adapter (I used a saw to saw it off) 2) Change the amps in the charger station setting to 40a down from 80 (I think Tesla can take max 48 via ac) When it was set to more than 40A, the ford...
  7. How many Lightnings would Ford make this year?

    Ford plan to reach 250k capacity by year end, but I have not seen how many Ford pla to make this year.
  8. Could we expect price drop soon?

    Tesla just dropped price almost back to original level. For example the most popular Model Y used to cost $50k, increased to $66k last year, now it is $53k, and it could get $7500. I think we would see F150L price drop back to 2022 level, agree?
  9. Will Charge Station Pro charge non Ford EVs?

    Will Charge Station Pro charge non Ford EVs?
  10. Does FCSP still have overheat issue? Can it charge other EVs?

    I have not seen any update on overheat issue. I would also like to know if it charges other EV's. I cannot install the 100A breaker but can only net close to $700 if I decide to cell it. Given its value (80A and bidirectional charging), I think it makes sense to keep it if it is trouble free...
  11. California NIB charge station pro in N CA $750 + shipping or pickup.

    New in box and never opened, Tesla 48A charger works fine for me and no breaker space for 100A. Located in Sacramento area, I am willing to drive up to one hour to meet you for local pickup.
  12. One pedal driving with the brake and 2nd row seats reclining

    I am used to Tesla one pedal driving and it is pretty smooth. When vehicle stops completely, the brake applies. Lightning is a great EV, but still need some improvement. When the truck is nearly but not completely stopped, the brake would apply so there would be some hiccup. That's not a big...
  13. How can cybertruck provides 6.5 feet bed?

    Because it has less frunk area? Also aerodynamic looks optimal, I guess freeway MPGe would be higher than Lightning. Please comment.
  14. Lightning Platinum vs R1T Range test by Alex's EV Buyers Guide

    Both were charged to 100%, after running ~245 miles, the conclusion: R1T: 2.46m/kWh, 100kWh used, real world range 315-320 miles. Lightning: 2.0m/kWh, 123kWh used, real world range 250-255miles. Lightning uses 20-25% more energy than R1T, probably due its size and box shape. I did not watch...

    “Sales of Ford’s profitable F-Series pickups were off 10.7% through August compared with the prior year. The company has sold 6,842 models of its all-electric F-150 Lightning pickup to date as of Aug. 31, including 2,373 vehicles last month.” F-150 Lightning’s top three conquests are Ram...
  16. 2nd Generation Lightning Prediction and Wishlist

    As Silverado EV and Cyvertruck are coming and RAM ev is on the way, Ford must also be busy working on 2nd gen 2025 Lightning. I am interested in your opinio, prediction and wishlist. I predict it will not be box shaped anymore but rather aerodynamic shaped to increase freeway mileage...
  17. 2022 Lightning Extended Range (ER) battery real capacity (not usable) = 143.4kWh and Standard Range (SR) = 107.6kWh

    Saw this on FB. According to OP, he saw the truck up on a lift today and was able to see the number. This is for ER battery. So Ford keeps close to 8% capacity reserved. Update: We have a number for SR battery: 107.6kWh real capacity.

    For those with more than $300k income, will you still buy a EV without $7500 incentive? In California, $2000 rebate has a cap of $200k for a family, that makes the gap to $9500.

    Alex let his Lightning and R1T sit for 2 weeks and Lightning still shows 100% battery charge but lost about 5 miles, that is about 0.2kWh/day. Rivian lost 27%, 2.8kWh/day, that is 2500 miles worth of electricity per year.
